Education

The Deputy Prime Minister had several opportunities today to speak to the educational issues in Australia. Dr. Joel Klein, the education chancellor in New York City was in Melbourne today at her request to add to the dialogue about the future.

There is no question but that we need to do our best with the education of our children and youth. If we don't serve them well, everyone loses. I celebrate every endeavor to constructively improve the education of our kids.
